This went into service 11-2-11. It replaces a 1999 Spartan-Super Vac (seen on p.5 post #99 of this thread). This is the first Pierce in the fleet since a 1981 Pierce Tower that served at Truck 18 & Truck 20. It is also the first Dallas apparatus to have a Roto Ray installed.

This was probably posted somewhere on Firepics previously, New Jersey apparatus, or TASCMAN's posts or somewhere, but here it is again! I just got this on Sunday. Maple Shade, NJ (the town I grew up in) Eng 1013 - 2009 Pierce Velocity 1500/750.
From the Florence, NJ 100th anniversary parade this past Saturday, the Bristol-Myers Squibb facility in Princeton, NJ runs this Pierce Lance as SS 27. Anybody have any other info on it?
The rest of the parade pics are on my Smugmug thing.
My friends in the department tell me they expect this to be replaced in the near future.

Sad to hear that this is up for replacement. This rig has been one of my favorites since the day it was delivered. I love that they have added the chrome wheels. If I had money, and place to keep it, I would by it and bring it home.
